I hope this goes here. I had a book request denied because it was a novel. So this could also go in Lounge I imagine? or Media?
Anyhow, any occult novels that struck your fancy lately? I am reading Mark Danielewski's House of Leaves. Partly it's a tale of a couple who find their new bought home far, far vaster inside than out. (And not necessarily so heimlich after all.) Partly it's satire on the academic/scientific/literary world for dithering endlessly about what they never understood to begin with. (One "footnote" to illustrate a point runs for about three pages of names.) Reactions from others who've read it?
Any other gems out there?
